Jeb Bush (R-Chickenhawk) went to speak at West Point, the US Military Academy. He was actually cheered by the cadets. Are they high? I would think that they would be asking, "What the Fuck is this moron talking about?". Seems Jebbie related tales of his arduous, hazardous leadership as Governor (and Bush Family Court Jester) in doing things like this:
...
The governor also cited his own leadership experience in helping his tourism-dependent state rebound from the aftermath of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Bush said he called in experts, empowered workers in the field and tried to relieve public anxiety through novel moves like promoting Disney World during a visit to a Disney store in Chicago. ...
Excuse Me? Visiting a Disney Store constitutes leadership? Only in BushLand. These cadets, who are part of a sad tradition of shunning the likes of General Benjamin Davis, and heirs of the legacy of George Marshall, Omar Bradley, Douglas MacArthur, Benjamin Davis, and Eisenhower should have thought about what a fucking moron they were listening to, and shunned him too. It's sad that all their "cheers" were likely more related to the modern cult of celebrity than any critical thought on their part, which is really scary considering they are future military leaders.
